A tip from Tanya Haynes when working with silk ribbon.

Description

The ribbons and threads are available from Bee Crafty where you can also find Tanya teaching some workshops. www.beeingcrafty.co.uk

Tanya says about herself:

I grew up in South Africa and have been stitching and knitting since childhood, but it wasn’t until I moved to England that a whole new world of needlework, and all that it had to offer, opened up to me. I started teaching about 14 years ago.

I love all forms of needlework, but particularly enjoy the challenge of designing. Often the colour of a particular thread or piece of fabric will provide the inspiration for a particular design. I also like to incorporate many of the old stitching techniques found in traditional samplers.
